So the theme of honey for this month's Sugar High Friday seemed easy-peasy. Until, as usual, I panicked as I rifled through recipe books, consulted the Internet and put on my thinking cap wondering what on earth I was going to bake that would, as Chairman Kaga would insist, "best highlight the theme ingredient".

As usual, the last book I looked at was my Edmond's Cookery Book, casually flipping through it and not expecting to find anything. And wouldn't you know it--there was the answer staring right back at me. Easy as. No shopping required. Simple and quick. And sounded tooth-achingly enticing. Oh Edmond. I knew there was a reason I treasured you so...

Melt butter, sugar and honey together in a saucepan.Remove from heat.Add flour, baking powder, ginger and stir until mixture is smooth.Drop teaspoon lots onto a cold oven tray, leaving enough room for the mixture to spread to double its size.Bake at 180C for ten minutes or until golden.Leave on tray for a few minutes to cool before removing to a wire rack.

Makes 20.

TIPS:Make only enough batter that you can bake at a time. I tried to make a triple batch (yeah I'm a lazy but greedy cook) and the mixture dried out by the 2nd and 3rd batch (reheating it doesn't help, it only cooks your dough). Really though, this is sooo easy and quick to whip up, that making repeat batches is barely a hassle at all.

THE VERDICT:YUM! They are just like Brandy Snaps (but without the brandy). Mine were quite gingery as I was deliberately heavy-handed with the ginger but the buttery sugary goodness seems to have caramelised as an almost toffee-like biscuit. You can see that toffee-like goodness by just looking at the number of holes in the biscuit. That's butter baby!

Terribly addictive. Mission successful.

Check out the full wrap-up of Sugar High Friday honey entries by this month's host, Nic from bakingsheet, here.

hey, we went to kasturi after reading your post. we had nasi lemak, soto ayam and a plate of kuih (2 each of 3 types) which were all not too bad and presented well. the food were on the right track towards authenticity, but the taste (in terms of spices used and spiciness) were all disappointingly reduced to a milder level.

Hi Clare Eats - Yeah they were. I always forget about my Edmonds, but it is so great for simple, no-nonsense recipes without any fancy-schmancy variations.

Hi Nic - Thanks for hosting Nic, and coming up with such a great theme. There should be a great wrap-up of varied entries!

Hi J - They are highly addictive. And so easy to make too. I love easy recipes!

Hi Tian - Thanks.

I can't believe how many people I am sending to Cafe Kasturi (I should have arranged a commission!). Looking back, yes, I'd have to agree the dishes weren't very spicey and were a little on the spicy side.

Thanks for your input. Any places you recommend for spice factor?

Hi BrisKJJ - Hehe. I always forget about the Edmonds and then I smack myself for being so remiss when I discover the perfect recipe. For such a small book it really does prove its value per page!
